OME BP-51 Complete Kits

Not an expert with this but I would say they aren't extended travel or even an option for it with the BP51's. Options below.

OME4RNR10MKBP51KD - Medium Load Kit
OME4RNR10HKBP51KD - Heavy Load Kit

Part Numbers with No-KDSS:

OME4RNR10MKBP51 - Medium Load Kit
OME4RNR10HKBP51 - Heavy Load Kit


Is the BP-51 an "extended travel" set up? I'm reading conflicting reports that it is and isn't.
 
Uca

I think I have decided to get BP51 for my 4Runner Trail but I have not decided on UCA. I initially was going to go with SPC as they seemed to meet my needs at the right price. The local shop suggested Built Right (that I had never heard of).

I then started looking at the various options which led to more uncertainty rather than me making a decision.

SPC, Built Right, ICON delta, ICON Billet, ... So many choices.

I do believe that the SPC likely meets my needs but I also trust my local shop and their recommendation of Built Right.

Any thoughts/recommendations for UCAs to go with the BP51 for my 4Runner Trail with KDSS?

Thanks

I assume the shop is the Truck Shop in SD? If so, they make Built Right products
I personally run SPCs and I havent had any issues. You can't really go wrong with any UCA, but just like most things its about the service and maintenance that promote longevity.
With the SPCs, I just clean them off and regrease every oil change.

SPC is a popular and great option.

Like the previous post shared, "you can't really go wrong with any UCA." and Ball-Joints are great.

Other popular Ball-Joint options;

Dirt King
OME
Dobinsons

ICON Delta-Joint is a hybrid of both a Uniball and Ball-Joint, so if planning on
more extreme offroading, this might be a better choice.

If just normal weekend warrior and off-road use, ball-joints are the way to go.

Yes it was the Truck Shop. That could explain why I had never heard of that Built Right.

I am leaning toward having my usual mechanic do the installation so Built Right is likely not an option (Truch Shop no longer sells over the counter parts).
 
All of the kits I see for the BP-51 front seem to have the same spring rating. Does anyone know if dealers can order a different spring option for the front coilovers?

Yes, they should be able to. There were different front springs for the v6 vs v8. I also recall that when I upgraded my suspension in the 4th gen the team at Slee had me bring in the rig loaded for a typical trip so they could pick and adjust everything for that load. I seem to recall they made a last minute switch to slightly heavier springs out back due to my 150lbs drawer system+load.
